A simple walk through Washington, DC, to view the significant monuments, memorials, and artifacts found in our Nation's capital, began a profound journey of personal discovery and renewal for Newt Gingrich, one of America's most influential politicians and commentators. His first stop was the National Archives, where the immortal words from the Declaration of Independence that we "are endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights" jumped off the page and into his heart. From day one in our country's history, the Author of freedom was not the state nor even the Founding Fathers. Our basic human rights and freedoms, which have been the spark for all of America's accomplishments and greatness, were - and are - "Creator-endowed." Gingrich sounds a clarion call for us to recognize that the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness that we hold so dear are inseparable from a sincere and humble acknowledgement that these gifts are only the Creator's to give.
